[0080] The following is a non-limiting example of the present invention as applied to wastewater sludges produced from a sewage treatment facility. Depending on the water content and type of extraction process utilized, some of the processing steps described below may not be necessary.
[0081] Sludge is collected from various sources within the wastewater biological treatment plant. Example sludge sources to be utilized include primary sludge, skimmer residuals, grit, secondary or waste sludge, and biosolids. Locations for removal of these sludges from the sewage plant will vary with the layout of the actual plant; however, in most cases, it is planned that collection after dewatering steps (belt presses, centrifuges, grit chambers, clarification, etc.) will be targeted to reduce the amount of water having to be handling during processing.
[0082] Depending on the type of chemical extraction process selected (based on the source of the sludge) and the dewatering effort expended by the...
